Jesus, Savior, pilot me Over life’s tempestuous sea Unknown waves before me roll Hiding rock and treacherous shoal Chart and compass come from Thee Savior, pilot me
Though the sea be smooth and bright Sparkling with the stars of night And my ship’s path be ablaze With the light of halcyon days Still I know my need of Thee Savior, pilot me
When at last I near the shore And the fearful breakers roar ’Twixt me and the peaceful rest Then, while leaning on Thy breast May I hear you say to me I will pilot thee
